The business case for biodiversity In Manchester this week, governments endorsed a report that tries to do something business has long resisted: treat biodiversity as economically material. The new assessment from the Intergovernmental...

The death of affordable skiing Skiing season, whether its Meribel and the French Alps or the Italian Dolomites, has become an unbelievable expense.

Yep - we are coming to the sad conclusion that skiing is no longer economically viable. The Ikon/Epic monopoly, arguably driven by climate change, is putting skiing out of reach for more and more families...

There is No Scientific Justification to Revoke the Endangerment Finding The U.S. EPA's decision to repeal the Endangerment Finding will limit the government's ability to regulate emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act.

As I say here, there is no scientific justification to revoke the engagement finding. In fact, over the last 15+ yrs, the evidence of how climate change affects our health has only grown. Higher risk of allergies, dementia, fertility, heart disease, and death: that’s what’s on the line. @nature.org

Call them Robber Barrons, or Robber Bro's. "Oligarchs" just doesn't paint the picture of the way they are selfishly destroying America

Because the Yankees front office is broken, which is because the franchise is lost under Hal's ownership. Yet another reminder that our best hope as Yankees fans is for a World Series-focused ownership group to make Hal an offer he can't refuse. And then clean house

Evidence continues to mount that the Yankees are doomed to mediocrity and frustrated fans for as long as Hal Steinbrenner is the owner. He should have fired Cashman a few years ago. They should have fired Boone a few years ago. The franchise is NOT making decisions that will win World Series

It's long past time for the 25th Amendment or impeachment and removal, but better late than never...

Whatever it takes to regain our country and rescue America from somehow having fallen under the influence of fascists, mobsters, and petrodictators. We WILL be back!

Wildlife is deeply embedded in sports culture. Therein lies a conservation opportunity. Researchers argue that the emotional pull of teams could become a force in endangered species conservation.

How billionaires took over American politics The current concentration of wealth is unlike anything in history. So is billionaires’ involvement in politics.

“How billionaires took over American politics”

The concentration of wealth among the richest Americans is unlike anything in history — and so is billionaires’ influence in politics.

The USA has over 342 million people.
Only 902 billionaires.
It's when we say it's over.

“I am now an 81-year-old man and I know that in the minds of many, I carry the torch from a so-called centrist political era. Yet it is abundantly clear even to me that the Democratic Party must now run on the most populist economic platform since the Great Depression.”—James Carville

So the next Democratic president can cancel everything Trump has done ever then..? Can't wait! Especially additions of corrupt Supreme Court justices!

The sooner Hal sells to a World Series or bust ownership group, the better for Yankees fans and MLB alike. His own father would have fired him years ago for his ineptitude

And yet, no changes at manager or GM. Expect more meh in 2026. Just good enough to make the playoffs, sell tickets and concessions, make Hal Steinbrenner a lot of $$ and please his bankers and bondholders. No World Series rings until Hal is bought out by a championship-focused ownership group

What a bunch of suckers participants must be…

OK guys, post your best signs from today for entry into my Top 15 No Kings Sign Contest.

But who is responsible for failing to hold accountable the person who decides how you spend (Cashman), and the person who manages the team you spend on (Boone)..? When Boone and Cashman weren't fired after the 2023 season, it became clear that the problem is Hal being a terrible owner.

As I've been saying...

Elsewhere on social media…

This is not the news we are waiting for... #FireBoone

I've been Googling "Aaron Boone fired" every day just to see what happens (there is definitely a LOT of support for it happening out there). Let's all do our part and try to manifest it...

Polluters realized that democracy was incompatible with letting them destroy the planet and passing the costs to everyone else. So they're destroying democracy.
